François-Jean Pelletier (November 17, 1863 – December 15, 1945) was a merchant and political figure in Quebec. He represented Matane in the House of Commons of Canada from 1917 to 1925 as a Liberal. Pelletier was elected to the Legislature of the State of Montana for Silver Bow County[1] in 1899 and 1901.[2]
He was born in Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pocatière, Canada East, the son of Henri Pelletier, and was educated at the Collège de Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pocatière.[1] After completing his schooling, Pelletier worked as a clerk and assistant postmaster in Matane. In 1881, he was hired by the Canadian Pacific Railway as a station agent and telegraph operator. In 1884, Pelletier moved to Montana where he worked as a bookkeeper, as foreman at the Montana Meat Company and as an employee of the Armour Packing and Provision Company.[3] In 1888, he married Mélanie Joncas. He later returned to Matane where he reestablished himself as a merchant. Pelletier died in Matane at the age of 82.[1]
In the records for the state of Montana, his name is recorded as Frank J. Pelletier.[3]
